I am very pleased with mine. I have the 760lt. Plow works great on my F150. Wish there was a little more weight to the plow (550lbs) for back dragging. This is my first year with the plow and all is well so far. Plow does stack snow very well IMO.

:redbounce purplebou :bluebounc I have had a Blizzard 810 on our dump tuck for a few months now. I am very happy. It saves us a lot of time. Few small problems though. A hose came lose and began to leak. I took it to the dealer being that Iwas unfamiliar with the plow. After knowing the problem, I could have repaired it my self. It was under warranty though. I also had a King bolt that lost the nut. I actually think that I plowed with it missing for a period of time. Found the nut one day and became suspitious. It was from my plow. It was put back on. Despite those to situations, I am very happy so far.

Nice plow, the mold board is higher. I like that for getting snow up over embankments.

I just got my 810 this year and love it. Only one small problem, I want another one. I am planning on putting another one my 2500HD this spring.
Robert, I had a similiar problem with one hose the first time out, gave it a little tightening and has been fine since. I did the install myself. Mainly to learn about the plow and parts. Jerre will be installing my next one in Erie.

Like Camland said, I run a Blizzard. I really like it, no problems so far other then a broken cutting edge but that was my fault not the plow's. And it froze up on me one morning at -28 degrees...a few hours in the heated shop and it was good to go. Mine is the 760LT like clncut's. And I agree with him that a little more weight would be nice for backdragging...but then it would be also be a heavier load for the 1/2 ton trucks. So I guess we have to give a little somewhere. I plow a few small commercial lots, and the rest are residential. It's gotten a good work out this year as we've had a ton of snow.

All in all, when you compare the cost of the Blizzard vs. Fisher, Western, Boss, Curtis, etc., IMO it's a no brainer. But that's just my opinion and don't base a decision on one guy's opinion. Good luck with the decision.

great plow happy as can be but dont know what im going to do whent it breaks cant short chain it

Hey Thundercat,
When you bought the plow they should have given you one extra pin. It is in case of a breakdown or if transporting a long distance...run the plow up onto a pile and there is a set of holes underneath the A frame, insert pin and back away. Plow remains in the "up" position and drive to the shop. That is the way my 760LT is set up, I would assume the other models have that feature...but look under the A frame and see if you spot those holes.

I am very pleased with mine. I have the 760lt. Plow works great on my F150. Wish there was a little more weight to the plow (550lbs) for back dragging. This is my first year with the plow and all is well so far. Plow does stack snow very well IMO.

Consider the polar cutting edge if you want better backdragging results. Due to lack of snow, I haven't been able to try it out on all of my accounts and give it a full review, but I was impressed just playing around with it after the install. I know it will save a lot of time on those tough residentials that require back dragging.

My brother put the 810 on his Dodge 2500 CTD this year and I have just
been covering his plow routes for the last week while he was in Florida. The
plow is great .... it rolls the snow like no other plow I've seen and with the
wings going wide you can move alot of snow. My father also put a 810 on his
Dodge 2500 CTD last year after plowing with a fisher for 25+ years and he
says he would never get another plow, as he likes to say " you can't beat the
Cummins/Blizzard combo" and I agree.
